00:00:00
Donald Trump's rally at Madison Square
00:00:01
Garden on Sunday was full of racism
00:00:04
sexism and profanity uh it included
00:00:06
speeches from Melania Trump which was
00:00:08
calm by comparison Elon Musk who was
00:00:10
wearing a hat that used Nazi font that
00:00:13
was nice and a Trump's childhood friend
00:00:16
David Ram who called vice president
00:00:17
Harris the Antichrist speakers at the
00:00:20
rally uh also made insulting comments
00:00:22
towards Puerto Ricans Jews and Hispanics
00:00:25
in his speech including calling Puerto
00:00:27
Rico a pile of garbage which was a comic
00:00:31
I get it but it wasn't funny and of
00:00:33
course everything was vetted in his
00:00:34
speech Trump said the US is uh quote now
00:00:37
an occupied country and again describe
00:00:39
Democrats as the enemy from within which
00:00:42
JDM spent a lot of time pretending he
00:00:43
didn't say um what do you think about
00:00:47
that rally it was I mean I know why he
00:00:49
did it because he loves attention and he
00:00:51
wants to dunk on people but that was
00:00:54
felt like that 1939 Nazi rally that was
00:00:56
at the Madison Square Garden it was very
00:00:58
strange I thought actually the energy i
00:01:01
i to the Republicans credit I thought
00:01:04
them turning out that many people and
00:01:06
sort of what is arguably the bluest of
00:01:07
blue in Manhattan was a good move I was
00:01:10
shocked how much energy there was how
00:01:12
many Trump supporters there are in
00:01:15
Manhattan and I realize you can take a
00:01:17
train they're not from Manhattan come on
00:01:20
well they were in Manhattan um yeah and
00:01:22
but I look I I thought it was generally
00:01:24
speaking the
00:01:26
turnout was positive I think that and I
00:01:29
might be over estimating it but I think
00:01:32
we might have our uh October surprise
00:01:35
that helps the Democrats and that is uh
00:01:38
I think his name is Tony Hinchcliffe the
00:01:40
comedian yeah yeah well that's a broad
00:01:42
term he's one of those people that moved
00:01:44
to Austin to be around Joe Rogan one of
00:01:46
those hanger Hors but go ahead well he
00:01:48
is a comedian and I generally believe
00:01:50
that comedians deserve a really wide
00:01:53
birth and art is what was it Andy bhal
00:01:56
said art is getting away with it I like
00:01:58
it when comedians are irreverent even
00:02:01
inappropriate in the context of trying
00:02:03
to soften the beach and get us to think
00:02:06
and I I I cut them a really wide birth I
00:02:09
think Dave Chappelle has said some
00:02:11
offensive things but Bill Burr when he
00:02:13
talks about he's a pro-life guy but when
00:02:16
he talks about he makes you know if just
00:02:19
because a pie is Half Baked doesn't make
00:02:20
it a pie I think these are I think
00:02:22
comedians actually play a really
00:02:23
important role Michelle wolf who
00:02:25
offended a lot of people okay can I
00:02:27
finish yeah thank you well Michelle wolf
00:02:30
makes what a lot of people think is
00:02:32
offensive comments I think we cut her a
00:02:34
wide birth this guy his joke about
00:02:38
Puerto Rico being a you know a big pile
00:02:41
of trash in the ocean it not only didn't
00:02:43
land it was just so incredibly
00:02:46
tactically stupid at this point in time
00:02:49
because in
00:02:51
Pennsylvania there are 400,000 Puerto
00:02:55
Ricans and if just 5 or 10,000 of them
00:02:59
get motiv ated not even to switch their
00:03:01
vote but to vote for Harris and actually
00:03:03
kind of souls to the Po's feet to the
00:03:05
street that could swing the entire
00:03:07
election and I thought what he said was
00:03:10
so it just landed so poorly and it was
00:03:14
so really offensive there was nothing
00:03:16
funny about it it was just sort of
00:03:18
feeding into this Zeitgeist that Trump
00:03:20
is just deep down his DNA is racist and
00:03:23
he's not your guy unless you're are you
00:03:25
know from northern Europe it it is
00:03:28
exactly and I don't know if you saw this
00:03:30
but immediately post the rally every
00:03:32
Republican who's running for something
00:03:34
dist themselves from the comments well
00:03:37
you know I I'm agreeing with you on look
00:03:40
it landed in the room of energetic
00:03:43
people who I'm Sor in the
00:03:46
room in any case it wasn't funny I don't
00:03:49
mind irreverent Comics if they're funny
00:03:51
this wasn't funny and also it was vetted
00:03:53
by the Trump people oh was yes it didn't
00:03:56
just do it off the top it was in a
00:03:58
teleprompter they knew what was coming
00:04:01
so they knew what he was saying they
00:04:02
could have easily said look Joe or
00:04:05
whatever his Tony whatever his unfunny
00:04:07
name is um they could have said you know
00:04:09
what dial it back on the it just was he
00:04:11
totally wanted to do it so he could get
00:04:13
liberals going oh my God you believe
00:04:15
that that that's that that's their
00:04:16
favorite juvenile tactic in order to get
00:04:19
people mad but it was just pathetic and
00:04:21
especially since that was the and it
00:04:24
didn't just end with that it was was
00:04:26
like a range of things about Jews about
00:04:29
none of which were funny like I get it I
00:04:32
get the idea that Comics should be funny
00:04:34
and you they should be able to say
00:04:35
things even David Chappelle and I think
00:04:37
he goes on and on about trans people in
00:04:39
a way that's not funny but um ultimately
00:04:42
it's initially it's funny and then it's
00:04:44
not um because he overdoes it by by an
00:04:47
hour at least but um that's his business
00:04:49
if he wants to do that um in this case
00:04:52
the T it's time and place right they did
00:04:54
not have to have this guy there and he
00:04:56
wasn't funny and he's H and sure he's a
00:05:00
comic but it's a that's a broad term for
00:05:02
this fell if I went back and looked at
00:05:04
his stuff he's just unfunny he's just
00:05:06
wildly unfunny as a comic not very
00:05:08
talented so why pick him but it wasn't
00:05:11
just him it was his friend it was
00:05:12
calling Hillary Clinton a or
00:05:14
something like that it just went on and
00:05:16
chucker Carlson is so strange I don't
00:05:19
even know what to say Elon wearing you
00:05:21
know Nazi font on his hat like they were
00:05:24
just all trying to like get the libs
00:05:26
going which is their favorite thing and
00:05:29
they're tasteless and horrible people I
00:05:31
don't know I'm sorry I just you could
00:05:32
attract all kinds of people to I've been
00:05:34
in Madison Square Garden with
00:05:36
conservative groups when there's sports
00:05:38
events where there's wrestling it's like
00:05:40
it it that whole area attracts lots of
00:05:43
different people so I'm not surprised he
00:05:44
got people there it's only 19,000 people
00:05:47
by the way that fit in um anyway I think
00:05:50
it does turn off undecided voters and
00:05:53
it's just typical of what we're going to
00:05:54
get if he wins this is going to be a
00:05:56
Non-Stop hate Fest um and let's tell
00:05:59
stupid jokes about women's boobs for
00:06:01
four years or and black people and what
00:06:04
black people in watermelons are we back
00:06:06
to that that joke black people in
00:06:08
watermelons it's so funny yeah but just
00:06:11
just tactically speaking as we go into
00:06:14
the last eight days it it I'm I'm
00:06:17
focused on how she you know what happens
00:06:20
here like who actually wins and the the
00:06:22
races the the dog whistles the weirdness
00:06:25
the awkwardness the inappropriate I feel
00:06:28
like the market is already absorbed that
00:06:30
I'm speaking very tactically there are
00:06:32
400,000 Puerto Ricans in
00:06:34
Pennsylvania if 5,000 of them decide to
00:06:38
get off the couch who were going to
00:06:39
support Harris but maybe might not have
00:06:41
made it to the polls see that and
00:06:44
everyone seeing that clip get motivated
00:06:46
to turn out it could literally decide
00:06:49
who's President and for just I think
00:06:52
it's our I care I think it's our October
00:06:54
surprise I think that I think you're
00:06:56
going to hear that guy Tony hinch
00:06:58
Cliff's name a lot more I think that was
00:07:01
the October surprise because there's
00:07:04
400,000 Puerto Ricans in
00:07:06
Pennsylvania also Bad Bunny suddenly uh
00:07:09
who's one of the most famous bans 45
00:07:12
million followers JLo like and they're
00:07:15
all gonna you you're going to see so
00:07:17
much on Tik Tok yeah they um it was
00:07:19
interesting Mike Madrid who writes about
00:07:21
Latin uh he wrote a great book on Latin
00:07:24
voters Latino voters um said that it's
00:07:27
just going crazy it's sort of suddenly
00:07:30
has been like I don't know why people
00:07:32
don't get this this guy's a full-on
00:07:34
racist Donald Trump is anyway I'm sure
00:07:36
he thought it was funny he said
00:07:37
something earlier in the podcast I
00:07:39
didn't realize I've just been blissfully
00:07:41
ignorant over the past over this weekend
00:07:44
he he had you think that the the font on
00:07:48
his hat was purposely reminiscent of
00:07:50
Nazi propaganda it just happened to be I
00:07:52
looked at it it's called factor or
00:07:54
something like that it's it's a it's a
00:07:56
font it's it's a on his hat uh look like
00:08:00
it look like the Nazi font to me anyway
00:08:03
um uh you know I always think of this
00:08:07
the thing that really got me I'll tell
00:08:08
you was that that they did this Madison
00:08:11
and we'll finish up with this the
00:08:12
Madison Square Garden thing just miles
00:08:15
from the Statue of Liberty right where
00:08:17
on the Statue of Liberty there's a poem
00:08:20
which is called um uh what's it called
00:08:22
it's called um The New Colossus right
00:08:25
it's a sonnet by Emma Lazarus right she
00:08:27
wrote the poem in 1883
00:08:29
to raise money for construction of it
00:08:32
and the last part keep your ancient
00:08:34
lands your storied pomp cry she with
00:08:36
Silent Lips give me you're tired you're
00:08:38
poor your huddled mass is yearning to
00:08:40
breathe free this is the part I think is
00:08:42
important The Wretched refuse of your
00:08:44
teeming Shore send these the homeless
00:08:46
Tempest tossed to me I lift my lamp
00:08:48
besides the golden door I mean honestly
00:08:51
what is my grandfather came in on that
00:08:53
on a ship he was a wretched refug he was
00:08:56
nobody and he made a company he he
00:08:59
raised children um you know it's
00:09:04
just it's so depressing it's so
00:09:06
depressing to watch these people thank
00:09:08
you that's my poetry um we're going to
00:09:10
move on H that's why I'm really bothered
00:09:13
by this um it's just grotesque I think
00:09:16
and they're so they're so lucky these
00:09:18
people who are doing this they're so
00:09:19
rich they're so they've got everything
00:09:22
and they still can't be generous it's
00:09:25
astonishing and they're so hateful
